Easy recipe to make, and absolutely delicious. But watch your timer - my bread was done a full ten minutes before I expected.

Awesome bread and so easy to make! I used a dried berry mix instead of raisins and fresh cranberries and substituted walnuts for pecans. Thanks!

This is the most amazingly addictive Cranberry Bread I have ever tasted. Recently I made this recipe for a potluck and was lucky to have one slice for myself.LOL Thank you for the terrific recipe.I will definitely make this again. :)

I will be making this bread again. However, I will check for doneness in the 40-45 min range. My bread was overdone when I checked it at 48 min. I used walnuts that I had on hand and used brown sugar sub. I didn't have any orange peel, so left that out. Thanks, RecipeNut.

This bread was easy to make and the cranberries, raisins and pecans gave it a lovely flavor! I picked this for the ingredient game and so glad I did! Thanks Recipenut, sorry I was so late on my review.
